Watched The new Mission Impossible. Very decent, not quite as good as the last one but still a top watch, also watched a Austrian/German film called Funny games, tough tough watch, but still very good, but sick as well.
 
Fast & Furious 7
(Again)

So boss. A real guilty pleasure of mine. All 7 of them I can watch over and over without a care in the world.

Cars jumping from massive skyscraper to massive skyscraper. Huge explosions. Cars parachuting from planes.

Yes please.

And the end is quite sad. Cheesy like, but quite sad. (Ha. Gaaay).

I think we should think about seeing other posters
 
Just watched Pride.

At the height of the miners' strike a group of London based gay rights activists start collecting money to support the strikers. Some good writing and familiar actors allow an amusing look back at what must have been a huge culture-clash between a working class community and an ostracised minority. It lives up to its billing as a bitter sweet comedy and (at least to my memory) realistically portrays society back in the early 1980s. They tried a bit too much to give it a happy ending but it is good entertainment nevertheless.
 
Also. Watched American sniper


6/10


Crap

Concur.

Watched Big Hero Six last night
Pretty crap and I love animation
3/10
Swerve

Might not have been aimed at forty year old men, but nonetheless, I'm surprised at this summation because the film was very good. Quite inventive and beautifully designed.

Just watched Straight Outta Compton, one of the best films I have seen in recnt years.

If accurate (whhich I assume it is as Cube and Dre were involved) the portayal of the type of person Eazy-E was not the perception I had of him, quite sad really, but is IMHO a greeat watch for anyone, and for anyone who took an intrest in NWA through to the demise of Deathrow it is a MUST WATCH.

Brilliant

Not meaning to pee in your Cornflakes here, but this is the precise reason why the film isn't entirely accurate, and just tells you what you want to see. Like most Biopics to be fair.

In November 1990, Pump It Up!, the rap television show hosted by Dee Barnes on Fox, ran a segment on N.W.A that spliced in footage of a previous interview the show had done with Ice Cube, who had by then acrimoniously left the group over money disputes. N.W.A were furious. Dre saw Barnes at a nightclub in January 1990 and, according to a statement by Barnes published in 1991 in Rolling Stone, “began slamming her face and the right side of her body repeatedly against a wall near the stairway" and "grabbed her from behind by the hair and proceeded to punch her in the back of the head." In an interview after the incident, MC Ren told a journalist, “She got beat down. The host of that show did something that she knows she did, and got beat down, and I hope it happen again.” In a recent interview with Rolling Stone ahead of the movie’s release, Dre was asked about it and said, “I made some [Poor language removed] horrible mistakes in my life. I was young, [Poor language removed] stupid. I would say all the allegations aren't true — some of them are. Those are some of the things that I would like to take back. It was really [Poor language removed] up. But I paid for those mistakes, and there's no way in hell that I will ever make another mistake like that again." Meanwhile, director Gray said this during an audience Q&A after being asked about the “glaring omission” of Dee Barnes: “We had to focus on the story that was pertinent to our main characters."
